Hi all. Im a 33 year old male living in brooklyn new york. I have major baldness on both sides of the family and have just become concerned about my own hair loss over about the last six-nine months. I have been using Dr. Proctors shampoo for years because my dad would buy me about 6 bottles at a time and I just used it without thinking about it much but I think it may have been helping over this time.
Currently im on Propecia for just about 3 months and still use Dr. Proctors shampoo with nizoral 1% mixed in. I also take an herbal saw palmetto based supplement and a vitamin for general health.
I still have a pretty full head of hair (norwood 2) but I have noticed definite diffusion ( i think this is the term people use). Weird thing is, i dont lose hair. When i wake up there are no hairs on my pillow and I can vigorously lather my hair in the shower and at the most one or two hairs will come lose. But i can definitely notice the thinning of my hair overall. It seems to be getting worse but im hoping this is the propecia shed i hear people talking about. Any opinions are welcome.
Anyway, just saying hey and good luck to you all. Ive been lurking for a long time and have gotten a lot of good info from this site.
